Those practices, Aug. 14-16, are tentatively scheduled to start at 9 a.m., with gates opening at 8 a.m. The final joint practice is expected to be a walk-through.

The Lions have held joint practices the past two seasons with the Colts and Pittsburgh Steelers, but all of those practices have been on the road and workouts in Indianapolis were closed to the public.

In Pittsburgh, where the Steelers go away to St. Vincent College for training camp every year, the workouts drew large crowds.

The Giants are coming off a disappointing 3-13 season, but they could have some of the NFL's best offensive talent in wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and running back Saquon Barkley, this year's No. 2 overall pick.

Patricia, a New York native, interviewed for both the Lions' and Giants' head coaching positions in January. The Giants hired Michigan native and former Michigan State standout Pat Shurmur as their head coach.

The Lions also have two joint practices scheduled this summer, Aug. 7-8, at the Oakland Raiders' training camp home in Napa, Calif.
